Lindsay Lohan goes to rehab for 90 days after accepting plea deal in reckless driving case

Actress Lindsay Lohan has accepted a plea deal in a misdemeanor car crash case that includes 90 days in a rehabilitation facility.

The star pleaded no contest Monday to reckless driving, lying to police and obstructing officers who were investigating the accident involving her in June last year.

A judge says Lindsay Lohan will be sentenced to 90 days in rehab, 30 days of community labor and 18 months of psychological therapy.

She was on probation when her sports car crashed on Pacific Coast Highway while on her way to a film shoot.

The deal followed over two hours of talks behind closed doors in the judge’s chambers between her legal team and prosecutors.A mandatory sentence of five days in jail will be included in her rehab stay, which she will be able to complete in her native New York.

Lindsay Lohan was also found in violation of her probation in a 2011 necklace theft and sentenced to 180 days in jail.

However, she will be able to avoid jail time if she complies with the conditions of her plea deal.
